I have two female dogs and one male cat. Don’t get me wrong, I love my dogs (one of them anyway) but sometimes they be actin’ crazy. At those times, the cat and I usually look at each other with the mutual understanding of, “dude, b!tches, right?”

Don’t blame the cats; they don’t have toxoplasmosis by choice. Blame the infected rodents and birds that they ate.
“Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), which can spread to people through contact with cat litter trays and eating uncooked meat, is usually harmless.”
NB: 1. “Usually harmless.”
2. “And eating uncooked meat.”
Actually, they should have written “*under*cooked meat.” And also...”Unwashed fruits and vegetables, contaminated water, dust, soil...” according to the FDA.
But hey, let’s blame cats.
“But now, the largest study of its kind, has found having the parasite could raise the risk of developing schizophrenia by 50 per cent.”
And what’s the risk of getting schizophrenia otherwise? Pretty darned low.
Not exactly making “the human race” insane.
